  1. There’s no way that first and second goal are so low in real life. We’ve Kieta hit from distance and was given plenty of room to shoot. And Ox was basically open in the middle of the box for the 5th. I get these models are perfect. And people will blame Kepa. But Chelsea gave up quality chances today
